HOW DOES 1T STRIKE YOU?

What do our capitalists, our LAND

men, al those who are truly and
sincerely interested in the commerclai
welfare and prosperity of this city and
the Territory generally, think OF tne
propriety of organizing and MAINTAIN
ing all association for the develop
nent and promotion Of the industries
and business of the country? An
organization might be effected which
would be able to do much good in the
way of. advertising the natural
resources of the Territory. and Undue
ing hither both capital and desirable
class of people. Utah needs more
money and more enterprising men; 1t
presents abundant opportunities
for profitable employment for
both. It is believed there can

which she should now be enjoying. we

have demonstrated that they want peace
and industrial development; VINO VIII
seek the welfare of Utah in the assocla-
ton meetings and out OF them;. VINO
will invite capitalists to examine the
wonderful resources of the country,
and not alarm them with sensational
stories and wicked Inventions IN

safety of the Territory. 1t is.believed
that if our conservative, trustworthy
sincere business men, those who are
bona fide citizens, and who have
shown their faith by their works, Will
form society for the promotion OF the
commercial affairs and industrial de-
yelopment of the Territory, they will be
able to, do much good. The matter Is
WORTHY the earnest consideration Of
the class mentioned. Something shoulo
be done in the direction indicated.

AMERICANS FOUGHT.

An American in the Chicago Times
grows eloquently indignant, in writing
of the doings and assumptions OF for
eigners in this country. He suggests
that if Europeans want to quarrel with
and overthrow governments, they had
better begin at home. He says:
They starve upon small wages at home,
and come here and get compensation sdch

It must be forced upon them that though

But the best thing the writer does
is the explosion of that very ancient
chestnut that the foreign element in
the United States army put down the
war;" This claim has been repeated so
often, that many Americans themselves
actually believe that the United States
army during the war was made NJ
largely of foreigners, Americans form
ing only an Insignificant percentage Of
the troops. We have seen it in print
and urged as a reason why Americans
should help the Irish in their struggle
for relief from English oppression, tina
Ireland furnished nearly half the Unior
soldiers who foughtin the war. The Times
correspondent shows that of the thre,
million men in the United States servic,
during the war, two and half millions
were native Americans, the foreign
born being as follows, the figures having
been obtained from the official records

THE ANNUAL report of the Bell Tele-

which will not have a tendency to in :
spire popular love or respect for the
monopoly. The gross earnings for the
wear amounted to 100000, and the
net earnings were 81, 947 ,2sS. The value
of all the telephones owned by the COM
pany is s597, 749. and these were rented
for $2,1Os, 1872. What people complain
about is that they have to pay two mil
lion dollars rental for property worth
only half a million.
